One day I will build a fountain
Drink and never grow old
Then I ll market an elixir
that will eliminate the common cold
Find your sickness on my list
Pay up front and make a wish

One day I will work with animals
All the tests I m gonna do
All my stuff s completely natural
And when we re done we ll boil em
down for glue
that we can use to re-adhere
your lips to mine if you were here

There s a lot I will never do
Some fantastic, I know it s true
But none as much as my want to be with you

I can t stand to wait in line long
So I built a new machine
It just measures up the distance
and then eliminates the folks between

One day I ll construct a satellite
and I ll name it after you
Cause you were the greatest friend of all
except for when you split my lip in two
To see the look upon your face
as I launch you into space

There s a lot I will never do
Some fantastic, I know it s true
But none as much as my want to be with you

Bye-bye self-respect
I haven t had much of it since you left
I missed out on the best of you

Some day I will find the secret
to your social chemistry
Then I ll print it on a t-shirt
and it ll make you want to be with me
If I wear it past your work
you ll see other guys are jerks
Much like pheromones for flies
you will not avoid my eyes

There s a lot I will never do
Some fantastic, I know it s true
But none as much as my want to be with you

Bye-bye self-respect
I haven t had much of it since you left
I missed out on the best of you
